On Thursday night, the 50-year-old comedian tweeted a joke about Lamar Odom and Khloe Kardashian deciding to stay married after the former NBA pro was found unresponsive at a Nevada brothel last week. The joke, however, did not belong to him.

While the joke is a bit shocking considering Odom is still being hospitalized at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, California, Rock also tweeted his support for the 35-year-old athlete. "Stay strong Lamar," he wrote.
